How do you say treason in Russian? Evidently the answer is “измена- IZMENA.” In Hebrew the word is ” בגידה- BEGIDAH.” It has the same root at BEGED- meaning clothing. So in many ways the act of treason is figuratively the act of being a turncoat, changing closes to move your agenda forward.
I was thinking about all of this in wake of a comment made by John O. Brennan the former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency from March 2013 to January 2017. Recently he tweeted:
Brennan seems to know a lot about national security. I would trust that he knows the definition of treason.
So the better question is not how you say treason in Russian or Hebrew, but how do you say treason in Republican? Our republic depends on their patriotism. We can only hope that they act on in before it is too late.
